Work Like a Dog-A Mundane Mutt Post

If this made any kind of grammatical sense I’d want to do it just for the fun of it. :smiley:

Appreciation has been shown. Unfortunately, ACBG had to go home and do some paperwork, or more appreciation would have commenced a little later. Oh well, can’t have it all all the time now can we?

Rosie have you arranged for everything to be videoed so we may know all the intimate details? There’s still time. BioTigs set the pace with the pics of staple removal. That means you must come up with some way to top that. I know you don’t want to be outdone.

great Og, I hadn’t even considered that. Maybe some pictures, but no video. ewwwww!

Jury duty is over, and I didn’t get selected for a jury! Yippee!

Snakes won last night in Jacksonville 5-4 in overtime. Two more games to go in the regular season, and we need to win at least one of them to keep first place. Go Snakes!

Mr SCL has gone to the river for the night, so the cats and I have the place to ourselves. I am about to go take a leisurely bath…

Awwww rosie, think about it like it’s one of those surgery things they show on TLC. You could be a star!

Snakes I’m glad jury duty is over for ya. Even though I do believe in every citizen serving his/her term on jury duty, it’s still teh yuck to do it.

If anybody wants to learn any deep dark embarrassing secrets about da bear, go here. I am post #26. Those are just some of my secret shames. :o

Good grief, swampy, are we never to be spared your TMI? SABRINA??? :eek:

Why, stay in my hellhole, of course. But NOW there is light at the end of the tunnel…

And as of now–all of you are on the NO Doughnuts Diet. So there. I’m on my second [del]flagon[/del] glass of champers and I feel ggggrrrreeeeaaaattttt…

Yay, rigs on the job!!! I’d like something with lemon filling, please! :smiley: (Don’t try to fight it; FCM said it’s a rule! No doughnut diet, ha!) Ah…and it sounds like the daughter won the exchange student lottery, too. Hope she has a fun time (and that cute boy is also nice boy).

Ellen, Baby Cherry is sooooo cute (both in pic and mural)!

Sadly, Nava, it would be for free. And you’d need to read my mind in order to know what needed to be done. So, I guess you’d be able to do it from a distance. :smiley:

So you didn’t save us any carrot cake, Kotick? I’m kinda hurt.

BooFae, that’s one impressive series of accidents. All I can say is OWWWWWWWWW!!!

Glad to hear the healing is proceeding, even if it’s going slowly, kai.

Any chance of the parents telling your little brother he’s on his own, Hank? Seems like that’s the only thing that would really be effective. On the brighter side, my brother was a lot like yours for a while, but when he got out on his own he improved considerably. And he’s doing quite well at the moment (finished a Masters’ degrees, has held senior management/executive positions in large corporations, has his own company now).

So happy you’re taking care of the video game situation, Spats. (We were worried, of course.) :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m home, doing laundry and surfing.

Wanna stop by and clean out my garden, swampy? I would feed you and supply appropriate beerverages. (Why yes, I am feeling lazy, how could you tell?)

I’m sure there was more, but I’m tired and need to fold stuff. Hugs to all…

I’ll be back later…

GT

yay rigs!!!

Sabrina? You call that an embarrassing confession?

I’m tired. I’m watching the Wife watch Idol. Good god, people enjoy this show?

My pizza better hurry and get here.

That is all.

Excuse me while I jump up and down (lol figuratively - definitely not literally!), but I’ve -finally- got a broadband connection! It’s so nice and so quick!! YAY! Now off to youtube to watch all those crazy video clips I couldn’t view before. :wink:

We had grilled poke chops and mac & cheese tonight; the N.O.T.s & onion dishes, both varieties, sound delicious though and I’ll have to try that recipe sometime, Swampy.

Hello. I came home, walked the dog, and fell asleep for four hours. I am up now having salad and leftovers, and surfing. My back didn’t feel any worse at work today than it did yesterday.

Ellen, cute kid. He takes after Mom.

congrats, rigs! Can we expect a Haze-like post from you tonight?

swampy, if you were shorn all over, you’d have to change your name to swampbare.

tara Yay broadband!

And of course, I missed two items: 1) hope everything goes well, rosie. It’s interesting to read what all happens on the way to this type of surgery. and 2) swampy and MBG, did you really have to share your most embarrassing stories?

Hi tarra and doggio!

Why do banks charge so damn much for checks?

Hi Tel! Long time no see.

Oh, yeah…forgot a ways back: Hi Tel! Congrats on the job! What kind? Etc.?

I always order checks from those places that advertise all over the place. I’ve done it for years and years. Also, I try to write as few checks as humanly possible. Also, find a credit union. Much cheaper overall.

Why am I so awake? It’s past my bedtime and I wanna be sleepy!!

I work in an accounting office. I’m officially part-time, so I’m still looking for something else (after tax season, of course), but I’m effectively full-time right now. At the moment, I mostly do tax returns, but I also do general office work and answer the phones.

Well, I just opened a new bank account and closed my old one. They asked if I wanted checks and I should have said no, since I could order them from somewhere for much cheaper. Unfortunately, I wasn’t braining well that day and just said yes out of reflex. Oh, well. I hardly ever write checks anyway, but it’s too late to cancel the order. I was mostly annoyed because I had to get an account at one of the dinky local banks. I could have gone to the credit union, but see above re: non-braining.

No I didn’t, but I made a new carrotcake last evening just for you guys, this time spiced with brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamum, and in a proper sized form, and with a chocolate icing with a twist of lemon.

Dig in!

Morning all! I’m on day 4 of the humungous anti-biotics and I still can’t hear a thing. Bah!

Rigs - congrats on the new job but where was the drunken posting saying how much you love us? I’m feeling all neglected now…

Ellen, you have cute L’ilCherries! Your daughter certainly got lucky with the French family, let’s hope she learns some language skills as well as other stuff!

Swampus, does this mean you’re now doing nekkid-headed bacon frying? Just askin…

Rosie, if you’re following BioTigs example, there’s definitely got to be video. Tell 'em about our need for TMI and blame it all on Swampy.

Nothing much to report from over here, we went to the pub last night for beerverages but they hadn’t really got any! Sometimes you wonder what goes on in the heads of the people who run these places - they get their beer delivery on Thursdays, so last week they ordered lots of extra barrels of Guinness for St Paddy’s Day and skimped a bit on the other guest beers because they didn’t have room in the cellar for extra barrels.

So by Wednesday, they’d run out of every single guest ale except Skinner’s Brewery’s “Figgy’s” (4.5ABV) and Cain’s “Creamy Stout” (4.1ABV), and the ubiquitous John Smith’s creamflow bitter which is an utter abomination and shouldn’t be allowed in decent pubs. So it was a night of Figgy’s which mixes very well with anti-biotics!

Morning. I’m up and caffeinating, then going to morning Mass. Today is relax my aching spine day, and maybe let Rod the Roomba suck up some pet hair. I got hockey tongiht(only four more home games left :frowning: ).

How’s the head rigs?

Tel, I write so few checks, the cost dosn’t seem so bad spread over 2 or three years.

Congratumalacations!

Both on the job and on being a Mom with her head screwed on right.

I’m up, putting away laundry. I think I’ll have some of that carrot cake for breakfast, thank you, Kotick, although I’ve never had it with chocolate icing…

Next time you open a bank account, Tel, stop by here first and we’ll do all the reminders. We’re [del]all opinionated[/del] helpful that way, of course.

Thursday is almost like Friday, right?
